What does the Canadian election mean for global politics?
BODY:
Canada's relations with the United States has some parallels with New Zealand and Australia, they're the smaller neighbour which often gets overlooked when it comes to big, international affairs. But the election of a new Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, last month could end up having a significant impact on global politics - and that's partly due to some interesting timing. The new PM is promising to legalise cannabis - just ahead of an international summit on drug treaties next year. He wants Canada to take a more aggressive stance on climate change, just before climate negotiations begin in Paris later this year. And just as Russia steps into the fight against militant Islamic fundamentalists in the Middle East, challenging US dominance, Trudeau has halted air strikes in the US-led campaign against Islamic State. Nine to Noon speaks with Dr David Dymet, the Ottawa President of the Canadian International Council.

Awhi Creatures

Inter-dimensional critters are populating Papakura this month, hiding out in local landmarks and waiting to be found.

Once located, they watch on their screens as the creatures come to crawling, flapping, squawking life. By taking art lovers and locals on a treasure hunt around the town centre, Kim and Maggie tell RNZ's Justin Gregory they hope to open up a new appreciation for what Papakura has to offer.
EXTENDED BODY:
Maggie Buxton is a proud Papakura girl and for some time now has been creating art works celebrating the South Auckland suburb. In her latest project she has hidden “inter-dimensional” critters in local landmarks and is inviting art lovers and locals to find them.
I think Papakura has an amazing spirit.

Awhi Creatures, as they are called, are actually an augmented reality exhibition using designs by artist Kim Newall and began as an exhibition produced by Maggie in the Papakura Art Gallery. Users download a special app onto their digital device and then watch on their screens as the creatures joyfully come to crawling, flapping, squawking life. The creatures have moved out beyond the walls of the gallery and are waiting to be found in a series of locations around the town centre. To find their nests, users have to solve a series of clues related to the buildings and history of Papakura.
Awhi Creatures is the latest in a series of works operating under the umbrella title of AwhiWorld; a concept that speaks to Maggie's sense of the spirit of a place. Key to this is the Te Reo Māori word embedded in the title; Awhi.
It means embrace, it means enfold, it means support…and so everything I do is about how do we bring different kinds of worlds together, different disciplines, different cultures, to support and celebrate what we all understand to be the spirit of place.

The creatures were initially designed by Kim and then printed out on pieces of card. In a series of workshops with local children, Maggie and Kim encouraged them to colour-in the creatures and make them their own. They were then re-digitised and animated, with their "voices" also being made by the children using sampling technology. While the conceit is that the Creatures come from another dimension, they have been well and truly "colonised" by the kids.
They belong to Papakura now because the kids have helped them have Papakura textures.

Maggie argues that a sense of a place involves multiple layers of histories and cultures as well as intersections of time and increasingly, multiple layers of digitality. Our world is now an encoded one, she says, and the spirit of a place must include the digital or it will, quite simply, cease to exist.
Hence the use of portals. These swirling, black and white images work as both digital nests for the creatures and as a metaphor for the hidden histories and identities contained within a place or location. The idea is to encourage the user to look beyond what is front of them.
There are hidden worlds. We are living in a world that's encoded and has multiple digital media embedded in it. If we keep saying that the spirit of something doesn't involve the digital or the technological, we'll have no spirit left.

By taking users on a treasure hunt around the town centre, Maggie and Kim hope to open up a new appreciation for what Papakura has to offer and also for what it has lost. In collaboration with the local business association, they have placed some of the portals in buildings that are empty, run down or have changed from their original usage.
Some of the nests occupy shops that are still open for business and Maggie checks in with their owners every few days to get a sense of the public response. She says most people are delighted with the idea of developing a different idea of place around Papakura, a town that has not always had a good reputation and that has experienced a lot of change in recent years.
'I think there was quite a shock for Papakura when it got subsumed into the Auckland City landscape and became almost a suburb when before it had been its own service town. I think it is starting to reform its identity again...it's nice to be part of that process.'
The Awhi Creatures installation will continue to operate until the end of November but Maggie and Kim have already moved on. They’ve begun a new project at Papakura Marae, adding ideas around geotechnology into the augmented reality mix. Visitors to the marae use an app to find audio triggers that then tell stories about the buildings, carvings and people. It's one more way to let the people of Papakura discover the hidden histories of the place they call home.

Breeding Beauties
BODY:
Ivan Fredrickson and his daughter Kylee Perrett have a favourite subject....Ayrshire cows. The red and white dairy cows make up just one percent of the national herd but for Ivan and Kylee they're the ultimate cow. Ivan has been farming Ayrshires since he was a boy and has built up a pedigree herd now owned and milked by Kylee and her husband Danny. They're the proud owners of last year's North Island Champion cow.
EXTENDED BODY:
There's a lot of talk about cows around the Fredrickson's dining table at their Ngaere farm.
"It's the subject debated most of the time; which are the best ones, which ones are going to go to the show and which ones you put in the works,' Ivan Fredrickson says.
His daughter Kylee Perrett agrees. "Mum gets very fed up," she says with a laugh.
Kylee and her husband Danny Perrett are sharemilkers on her parents' Taranaki farm and milk a herd of 260 pedigree ayrshire cows they bought from them.
Kylee and her father are also cattle judges. Ivan's been judging for 50 years and Kylee became a senior judge last year.
They're also the breeders of last year's North Island Champion cow; Sentinel Hot Georgia.
Kylee and Ivan estimate Ayrshires, which are typically red and white in colouring, make up just 1 percent of the national dairy herd and say they're under-rated.
"Unfortunately they've got a name for being bad tempered but that was bred out of them years ago," Ivan says.
They rate well for adaptability to milking, overall farmer opinion, shed temperament and milking sped. He says ayrshires are hardy, appear to be more resistant to mastitis than other breeds and they're also good milk producers.
"They're the 'in between' cow - in between friesians and jerseys for milk and size. "
Each cow on the Fredrickson's farm has a name; all 260 milking cows, the yearlings and all the calves.
It's Kylee's job to come up with new names which can be a challenge, as is remembering them.
"I don't know them all off by heart....probably about half of them, " she says.

Food for Thought
BODY:
When Bruce and Denise McGill began farming organically 30 years ago they found that stock were just as healthy and production levels could be maintained, but they quickly learnt that the organic system requires greater management skills because there is not the flexibility of using a chemical product to fix a problem. Now their 900 hectare property near Owaka in South Otago runs over 4500 sheep and breeding cows. After processing, most of the lamb goes to the UK and because they farm on hard hill country, the weaner calves go to organic finishers and are eventually sold to organic meat markets around the world. (topics] rural, farming
EXTENDED BODY:
Te Taunga is a rugged 900 hectare property near Owaka in South Otago that supports over 4500 sheep and breeding cows.
It looks like any other farm in the Catlins, the only difference is it’s certified organic. Bruce and Denise McGill switched from conventional to organic farming about 30 years ago.
Bruce says. “We started to question some of the things that farmers were doing automatically. You’ve got to spray for everything, whether it’s weeds, its bugs in your pasture or bugs in your crops, people are always using chemicals out of a drum, and we thought why put chemicals into the food chain when we know that humans are going to eat it, it just seems to be a crazy thing to do!”
When the McGill’s began farming organically they found that stock were just as healthy and production levels could be maintained, but they also learnt that the organic system requires greater management skills because there is not the flexibility of using a chemical product to fix a problem.
After processing, most of the lamb from Te Taunga goes to the UK and because they farm on hard hill country, the weaner calves go to organic finishers and are eventually sold to organic meat markets around the world.
“We get an additional premium for our organic meat and that’s what makes it satisfying, you’re producing high quality product and the consumer recognises that and is prepared to pay a bit more than the conventional because you buy conventional meat in New Zealand you don’t know whether it’s been jabbed with some nasty in its lifetime, in some cases it has, with certified organic there’s a guarantee that there’s been no nasty input put into the animal.”
Bruce and Denise’s daughter Cara and her husband Neil assist with the running of the farm. They also produce honey and have a horse trekking business, Te Taunga Adventures which is based on the property. In the off season Cara’s horses have the run of the farm.
Cara says “They actually live the winter on a 70 acre hill block so they get to be real horses, they get to socialise with each other, they’re all bare foot trimmed and not covered so that fits in with the organics too as we treat them as naturally as we can” she says.
